FAQs Icon

  • What are layflat hoses used for?

    Layflat hoses are used for fluid transfer, pumping, and discharge applications. Their flexible, lightweight design makes them easy to deploy, store, and transport, while maintaining durability under pressure in demanding industrial and mining environments.

  • Why are suction hoses ribbed?

    Ribbed suction hoses are reinforced to prevent collapsing under vacuum pressure. The ribbing provides strength and flexibility, allowing reliable suction and discharge of fluids, even in demanding site conditions or when handling abrasive or heavy materials.

  • What are pipe floats used for with hoses?

    Pipe floats keep hoses buoyant during fluid transfer over water. They prevent kinking, reduce wear, and maintain consistent flow, ensuring hoses remain in the correct position while protecting against damage from dragging or submersion.
